Title: Breath
Author: Jackie Morse Kessler
Release Date: April 16, 2013
Publisher: Graphia (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt imprint)
From Goodreads:
Contrary to popular
belief, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse aren’t just harbingers of
doom—they actually keep life in balance. But what happens when their
leader and creator, Death, becomes suicidal?
Before the first
living thing drew its first gasping breath, he was there. He has watched
humanity for millennia. And he has finally decided that humanity is not
worth the price he has paid time and again. When Death himself gives up
on life, a teenager named Xander Atwood is the world’s only hope. But
Xander bears a secret, one that may bring about the end of everything.
This
heart-pounding final installment of the Riders of the Apocalypse series
looks at the value of life, the strength of love, and how a small voice
can change everything . . . forever.
Seeing this coming out in April reminds me that A) I really enjoy this series, and B) that I need a copy of the second one (that I've read) and that I need to read the third one even though it'll wreck me. This series has a way of making me remember the sad and depressing and horrid parts of high school, but books that make me feel are awesome. I hope there are teenagers who read this series and feel those things, too.
This is a new series to me. I will have to check it out. Nice pick.

I haven't heard of this series either, but the premise sounds so intriguing! The four horseman? I have a vague knowledge of who they are, but I would definitely be up to learning more about them!
ReplyDeleteNew GFC follower! Would love it if you could return the favor. :)

I tried reading a series about the Horsemen before and really disliked it. I'll have to look more into this one. I love that cover though. Great pick!
